Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine (HMSOM) is a private medical school in Nutley, New Jersey. It opened in 2015, becoming the first private medical school in New Jersey to open in decades.[1] Originally affiliated with Seton Hall University, the Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine became independent in 2020.
HMSOM is affiliated with Hackensack Meridian Health (HMH), a network of 18 hospitals and the largest hospital network in the state after 2018 when a merger of Hackensack University Health Network (HUHN) and Meridian Health was completed with JFK Health. The merger comprises three regions across the state of NJ and the larger hospitals in each are: Hackensack University Medical Center (HUMC) in the North, JFK Medical Center in Central NJ, and the Jersey Shore University Medical Center (JSUMC) in the South. All three regional hubs serve as educational centers for HMSOM students during their clinical years of rotations.
